BRITISH COMPOSERS.
Sir-3YL’s band programme recently included ‘an item by "The Kneller Hall Musicians" entitled "The Fanfare of Trumpets." This recording comprised splendid short works by the best British composers and to my mind revealed perfectly the titles given to them, as they were played in turnmajesty, beauty, and merriment-with unmatched artistry. I have seldom heard an item over the air which conveyed, in better form, the true message of our national institutions and traditions. We are inclined to "bury" our British composers and artists in this field of music and what more appropriate time than the present to hear more of them?
